Sinderela Play
Reaction Paper World Literature
CRUZ, Ross Christien L. 1ChE-D
Ma’am Luisa Gomez December 15, 2012

Last December 9, we went to Aliw Theater to watch the play “Sinderela”. The show started at 3:00pm. Before the real play started, there was some introductory play that was held. There were some ballet dancers and some foreign musicians that kept the audience entertained. I found it very interesting because they have been moving in sync, all at the same time. It lasted for 1 hour, and after the Introductory Part, they were given a big round of applause for their outstanding performance. A 10-minute break was given to the audience before the Sinderela Play starts. After that 10-minute break, the play started. The introduction to the play was so creative. They used Tableau Vivant, a motionless performance in theater. After that, the play started. It was very entertaining, I did not feel boredom. I really appreciated the ballet performance, even if I don’t do ballet. The performance is very creative, easily understood even of you don’t do ballet, yet it is full of humor. After the play, we went to Star City to enjoy the rides. From the play, I learned that speaking or reading is not the only ways to give message to the audiences, even dancing can give these important messages. Even if you don’t do dancing or singing, as long as you put your focus on one thing, you will definitely understand the meaning of it. You don’t have to be anything to understand everything. It’s just a matter of focus and attention. While watching the Sinderela Play, I can really see and understand what the dancers are trying to tell the audiences. For me, it was pretty clear. The moral of this play is you can be everything you want; all you need is faith, never falter, and hold strongly to your beliefs. We should not let anybody stop us from doing what we want. Also, we should not do the things we have to do, but we should do the right

    During this assignment I learned that stories could be told without the use of words. I was surprised how easily I could understand the stories in the pieces without any dialogue, but just through body language and movements. I didn’t know before how emotional and meaningful a ballet concert could be precisely because of the lack of…

    We will name the teacher Mary for the purpose of this critique as Aistear does not state the name of the presenter. Mary looks at pedagogical framing which she states lays the foundations for play. She calls it behind the scene work. According to Mary it includes the provision of resources, arrangement of space, and the establishment of daily routines, thematic planning and assessment. Mary communicates her message across in an orderly and mannerly tone. She is easy to listen to and reminds me of a teacher that I had many years ago wise and well experienced. I would be confident to implement her suggestions just by the tone of her…

    Language helps us share other people’s experience. In the play the Shoe Horn Sonata by John Misto, the use of symbolism, stage directions and dialogue enables the audience to feel empathy for the character as does the language used in the film Apocolyto and in the painting “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother” by Holly Wong.…

    The Broadway play which I went to see was located at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater, 205 West 46th street. This is considered the heart of the theater district in New York City. The play which I saw was The Little Mermaid presented by Disney. As an 18 year old male, I was not very fond of seeing a Disney play but, my girlfriend wanted to see the show so, I had to come tag along. In the rest of this paper I will give a review of how my day went: Getting to the play, the theater, the play itself, the surroundings, the people, the audience’s response, and other aspects of the show.…

    Jersey Boys Play

    This Broadway play has been around for a long time. It captured people’s attention from the clothes they wore, to the beautiful melody from Frankie Valli. This play is set in the 1960’s; it is based on Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. Through a musical it talks about their lives, where they grew up, and the struggles they went through to get to fame. They came from nothing, living in a poor area, in a little shack house, to fame and wealth. Their sweet voices took them far in life, accomplishing many of their goals, to scoring not one but a couple hit songs like, “Sherry,” “Big Girl’s don’t cry,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You,” “Oh What a Night,” and so on. When I first walked in I didn’t know what to expect, except hearing how good this play was. My thoughts were a boring play to sit through and get it over with but it captured my eyes from the moment they started singing. Their unique voices were so calm, sweet and inviting that you wanted to just listen or sing along but never was there a dull moment. Not only was the music capturing but the clothes and the colorful set opened up your eyes. They chose the right setting, the perfect performers to make this show a phenomenon. Looking at everyone’s faces how they were enjoying themselves and people just not taking their eyes off the set really showed you that this performance was a hit. Seeing a group accomplish so much from where they came from sets the right message to those who are in the same situation. Not only is this an amazing show but also an inspirational story to many who do not have the money to go far with their gifts but can work hard and still accomplish what they did. Showing that life is not all about money but that you can still do what you love if you follow your dream and work your way…

    April 20, 2016, my oldest daughter and I attended the Moscow Ballet’s performance of Don Quixote, an everlasting favorite, at Three Rivers College. This is a classic ballet that has grown in popularity over the years, of which three acts can brilliantly convey every human emotion possible. It is a ballet with which I am vaguely familiar; I have seen it performed on television a few times and at the age of eleven I was thrilled to see a live performance. Don Quixote is chalk full of minuets, jigs, marches, and waltzes, mostly up beat and light-hearted with fun entertaining melodies as to correlate to the comedy. This particular viewing did not have an orchestra, but rather recorded sound. This aspect was suitable for the Tinnin Fine Arts Center…

    What we learn about their minds, personalities, and motivations come from what they say and do and from what others tell us about them. Thus we absorb a theatrical performance the way we do a scene from real life.”. In my experience with the audience, it made the opera more enjoyable knowing that the audience around me were all connecting in similar ways to the play and actors through the joyfulness, laughter, and temporary sadness. The more an audience enjoys the performance, the most likely it will be for anyone else around them to also enjoy it. Just as Tolstoy mentions in his writing of What is Art?, he says “it is this capacity of man to receive another man’s expression of feeling, and experience those feelings himself, that the activity of art is based.”. On the night which I attended, this was the case. Much of the audience simply responded to the humor and sadness the opera produced, and from that some people in the audience could not help but laugh or empathize when other members of the audience were doing…

    Giving people an escape for an hour or two is how I’m trying to positively influence the world now. Sharing the wisdom of a play with an audience creates a very genuine experience that virtually erases the line between performers and observers because both indulge in the moment. Barnard’s Theater program gives me the opportunity to reach out to more people, and learn in one of the most artistic cities in the world. I have a gentle demeanor but my will is strong. Barnard nurtures girls with unstoppable determination, and I believe that I stand in the same category. They produce women who take on the world and change it for the…

    I sit down in my comfy red seat at Academy of Theatre Arts in Williamsville, NY. I look around and see that the house is full. Not one seat was empty. In those seats I see people of all ages with happy, excited expressions on their faces. This got me very excited for the show that was about to be presented for me. I am very anxious for the show to start and suddenly the lights dim, the overture music begins and the curtain opens……

    The criticism relies on two assumptions. One, that rhetoric creates reality, and two, that convergence occurs. With regards to rhetoric creating reality we are to assume that the symbolic forms that are created from the rhetoric are not imitations but organs of reality. This is because it is through their agency that anything becomes real. We assume to that convergence occurs because symbols not only create reality for individuals but that individual’s meanings can combine to create a shared reality for participants. The shared reality then provides a basis for the community of participants to discuss their common experiences and to achieve a mutual understanding. The consequence of this is that the individuals develop the same attitudes and emotions to the personae of the drama. Within this criticism the audience is seen as the most critical part because the…

    In November 2011 my group and I performed a devised piece entitled ‘Unrequited Love’. The theme of our piece was conflict, young people in love but with different aims in life. As well as the couple’s conflict we had two other characters who wanted to be loved but had to be underhanded to get it! Finally to add even more chaos we had the interfering parents! Our piece was inspired by the genre Commedia Dell ‘Arte but we also incorporated spoof and parody. Our performance style was very physical and melodramatic. I worked with my group to devise and direct the piece but I also acted as two characters in the play. We had…
